Dahner PWV hut "Im Schneiderfeld"

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Good cuisine in a wonderful location. Children's playground available. Plenty of outside and inside seating.

Addendum 2020: Still unreservedly recommended even after the third visit. The cherry and cheesecake were delicious.

Wieslautertal Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

A sensible alternative to avoid having to drive on the main road - which has no footpath or cycle path. It's pretty here too.

April 27, 2023,MTB-Tour Dahn, Bruchweiler, Bundenthal, Bobenthal, Col Du Pigeonnier, Refuge du Scherhol, Wissenbourg, Daniel Rebert und über den Radweg zurück nach Dahn

Today's MTB tour took me to the Refuge du Scherhol. The way up there leads over trails that are drivable even for me. From Scherhol down, you ride the trail "Redoute militaire 1708" explanation to read on a picture. There was a tower on the Scherhol until March 13, 1945. Certainly, you had a good view of the Rhine plain. …

A picture-perfect morning... and just before our planned coffee stop in Wissembourg, we got so wet that we had to abort the tour.
We should have believed the weather forecast...

After recovering from a cold (more or less), I rode with the guys again. 10 Bikers on Tour. 👍 We went from Dahn along the cycle path to neighboring Alsace, or Weiler to be precise. From there we went up to the "An der Wegscheid" shelter and then along the Kehrweg to the Guttenberg castle ruins. The tour took us …

Past the Hohe Derst, we went to the German Wine Gate and into the Schweighofener Hof. After a long break, we went above Wissenbourg towards Weiler and the cycle path towards Dahn. This was a new route for me. Unfortunately, I got caught on a tree trunk and destroyed the engine cover of my bike. The replacement part has already …

In beautiful weather, we had a very relaxed round of silence (wine gate) with Harry. The goal was the umbrella bar to fortify ourselves with herring and spritzer. Met Heiner, Andreas, Jutta and Ingrid there. What a (planned) coincidence. 😂 After a refreshment for body and mind, we took a short walk to the battlefields above Wissenbourg. (1870-1871) Unfortunately the …

Today I rode again. I've been battling a cold for the last 14 days, which unfortunately is still not completely gone. My doctor also says I should take it easy. I can bike, but not do anything too strenuous. So today the three of us rode to Wissembourg. We went to the match for a bit and then had a …

February 11, 2024,Bicycle Tour, auf zum Bernd un seim Schorle 🤪

What can you do to avoid the foolish goings-on. Today we drove to the German wine gate with my colleague in Stille. We wanted to avoid moving to Dahn. Cozy gathering with two Riesling spritzers (per man) and a delicious tarte flambée, Mediterranean (also per man). Really recommended. Then we drove comfortably home again. That's it!
